Back in Eredivisie Wijndal returned in Eredivisie action and is available for Wednesday's clash with Galatasaray.

Possibility to face Chelsea Wijndal (strain) is an option for Wednesday's match against Chelsea after training Tuesday, according to AD.nl.

Impact Wijndal was dealing with an injury after an early exit last UCL match, but has returned to training ahead of their contest against Chelsea. That has brough confidence that the defender could be fit, likely still needing to pass some testing to be an option. If fit, the defender should return to his spot at left-back, starting in both UCL games thus far.

Impact Wijndal was forced off during the club's last UCL outing and is now going to be a question mark for the club after the international break, with the defender diagnosed with a muscle injury. This is a tough loss, as the defender has started in both UCL games this season. That said, if he were to miss out moving forward, Jorthy Mokio and Anton Gaaei are possible options on the left flank of the defense to replace him.

Receives starting role in Ajax Wijndal is starting the 2025/26 season as a regular starter in Ajax's backline after a difficult campaign hampered by injuries last year.

Impact Wijndal featured in 13 games last season with Ajax, holding a rotational role and missing major parts of the season due to a recurrent knee injury. That injury is likely behind him since he has started the four games Ajax have played in the Eredivisie, suggesting Wijndal should keep a starting role at left back for the start of the Champions League campaign against Inter Milan next Wednesday.

Helped off in Champions League Wijndal had to be helped off the pitch during the first half of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Rangers.

Impact Wijndal took a heavy challenge and was limping on the sidelines before being officially substituted off. Devyne Rensch was brought on to replace him and has been the consistent starter earlier in the group stage. Wijndal will hope to return to domestic play before the World Cup break, though it's possible he's held out until after the World Cup.

Bench option Tuesday Wijndal (strain) was named to the match-day squad versus Napoli on Tuesday.

Impact Wijndal missed the previous two UCL matches and hasn't featured domestically since Aug. 14 versus FC Groningen. Even with the defender healthy, he is far from a lock for the starting XI considering he has been an unused substitute twice in four Eredivisie matches this season.
